"Why are we being forced to choose between the economy and the environment? We tend to forget that without an environment we would not have an economy, as everything we consume and I mean everything comes from our environment."
~ Franke James (contemporary artist, photographer, writer)
Beijing's landfills are getting full fast! Reduce the "trash" you throw away by purchasing products with minimal packaging. Look for reusable, recyclable, and biodegrable items and remember to carry your reusable shopping bags!
Urban cycling is growing in this huge metropolis with more and more people enjoying the fun of riding on single speed bicycles especially with a fixed wheel (called fixed gear bicycle). Already last year the Beijing Fixed Gear Club arranged China's first event around these bikes. This year with an even bigger event all people riding on fixed gear bikes are invited to come and join the Alleycat on August 14th (4pm Worker Stadium East Gate) and the Bunny Hop, Track Stand and Trick Contest (8:30pm) on the same day.
Anybody (cyclist or not) is welcome to join the party on August 14th starting at 8pm with Jisu PK fun at 10pm.
All people on any kind of bikes are invited to come for some bike polo playing on August 15th starting at 2pm!
